Terrace Restaurant in Dar es Salaam

Underwhelming. The food sounded great from the menu and other reviews, but it lacked flavor. The dishes underdelivered with one-dimensional flavors and poor textures. The poutine cassava fries were undercooked. The mushrooms were unwisely seasoned with sugar. The curried cauliflower was overwhelmed with acid. On the tuna, we couldn't recognize flavors like sesame and coriander which were in its description. The couscous was dry. The bartender couldn't make cocktails that weren't on the menu. The restaurant was mostly empty, despite other establishments in view being totally packed. The view was enviable, but not enough to make up for the food. We came to The Terrace because of its rave reviews, and it's menu descriptions were enticing, but restaurant did not live up to them—or their correspondingly high prices.

Poor service.. food was ok

Amazing food and ambiance. Would definitely go again!

It's a beautiful spot on the water-the ambience is great. The menu looks stellar, full of creative mouthwatering dishes, but unfortunately, most were not executed well. Manioc poutine featured slightly undercooked manioc fries in super sweet barbecue sauce with a few shreds of cheese. Sautéed mushrooms and carrots in passion fruit were similarly too sweet. The couscous was dry and needed more flavor. The veggie platter that included 5 such dishes was 30,000 tsh, far too much given that I couldn't finish them because of the unbalanced flavors. I'd recommend just enjoying the view with a drink or dessert.

All is well, but very expensive

I love this place to the death

Nice restaurant on second floor with good view. Good but expensive food. Great service

Very nice restaurant in Dar es Salaam

Nice place

Great location, nice staff.

Excellent Service. Average food quality and prices

beautiful music, wonderful view, the ambiance is awesome, mostly a thursday kuku night one of the fantastic buffet in dar any one would love you can try one of these either chicken ramen noudle soup, avocado mango salad with chicken terrine, BBQ roasted chicken and you will never regret 👌🏾

I didn't like personally because there only nonveg food available.Although it have beautiful scenery, good for photography. But problematic for vegetarians guys

Nice restaurant with good views. Quality food but on the expensive side. Service is excellent.

This is where you want to be in the evening if you're staying out on the Peninsula. Great views, great drinks. You're paying a premium because of the location and typical customer, but attached the hotel and a good way to wind down the evening and wind up the night!

Cool place

Went for dinner - stunning location at night.Service was excellent, food was ok, choices limited.I had jerk chicken which was fine.Wife had a prawn curry but had to send it back - way too much salt and prawns were overcooked (tough).

The Terrace is a great location, breath taking sunset views, great playlist. Food was decent. Not the absolute best but ok. We ordered the jerk chicken which was a tad bit too dry. A friend ordered fried fish fillet which was unfortunately slightly undercooked. Gnoochi was great. We also ordered some dessert that we enjoyed. Banana split and creme brulee.The waiters are quick, polite and very attentive. Assisted us well when we needed the fish to be re done. Over all a good place to spend your evening

An excellent restaurant with a nice view of the coast beach. A great place to chill and hang out with friends.

I ate 3 nights in a row I found it very bad the food is ok, don't take the chicken it's dated, the waiters who serve at the tables very nervous ,,,, education zero price higher than other restaurants ,,,, if you find it I recommend one later than 50 meters restaurant THAI ,,,,, you will find much courtesy

Nice place. The swimming pool with the disco in the background is a highlight

Slow & poor service

Great place in a great location. It is open and airy while there are nice zones both inside and out.With the swimming pool and the opportunity to both eat and drink, The Terrace is the perfect place to relax.The place is clean and tidy with nice staff.

Swimming pool is clean and meals awesome

Great service and food, a bit expensive. Around 17-20$ for a dish with a side. And an amazing view of course :-)

My favourite restaurant in town. Great food, attentive service, awesome view.Attention: They don't offer lunch themselves; instead the lunch menu is from another restaurant downstairs which is not recommended. Terrace gets 5 stars for dinner only!

Amazing place to chill. Also quite ideal for an informal meeting/gathering. Drinks & food available.

Perfect
